[HALOGEN HEADLAMP]PRECAUTIONS

< PRECAUTION >

PRECAUTIONPRECAUTIONSPrecaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER" INFOID:0000000012591749

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used alongwith a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certaintypes of collision. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section ofthis Service Manual.WARNING:• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in

the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, it is recommended that all mainte-nance and repair be performed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

• Improper repair, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal injurycaused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag Module,see the SR section.

• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in thisService Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-ness connectors.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERSWARNING:• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-

tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with ahammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causingserious injury.

• When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect thebattery or batteries, and wait at least three minutes before performing any service.

General precautions for service operations INFOID:0000000012591750

• Do not work with wet hands.• The xenon headlamp system includes a high voltage generating

part. Be sure to disconnect battery negative cable (negative termi-nal) or power fuse before removing, installing, or touching thexenon headlamp (including lamp bulb).

• Turn the lighting switch OFF before disconnecting and connectingthe connector.

• When turning the xenon headlamp on and while it is illuminated, donot touch the harness, bulb, and socket of the headlamp.

• When checking the headlamp on/off operation, check it on vehicleand with the power connected to the vehicle-side connector.

• Do not touch the headlamp bulb glass surface with bare hands orallow oil or grease to get on it. Do not touch the headlamp bulb just after the headlamp is turned off, becauseit is very hot.

• Install the xenon headlamp bulb socket correctly. If it is installed improperly, high-voltage leak or corona dis-charge may occur that can melt the bulb, connector or housing. Do not illuminate the xenon headlamp bulbout of the headlamp housing. Doing so can cause fire and harm your eyes.

• When the bulb has burned out, wrap it in a thick vinyl bag and discard. Do not break the bulb.• Leaving the bulb removed from the headlamp housing for a long period of time can deteriorate the perfor-

mance of the lens and reflector (dirt, clouding). Always prepare a new bulb and have it on hand when replac-ing the bulb.

• When adjusting the headlamp aiming, turn the aiming adjustment screw only in the tightening direction. If itis necessary to loosen the screw, first fully loosen the screw, and then turn it in the tightening direction.

• Do not use organic solvent (paint thinner or gasoline) to clean lamps and to remove old sealant.

Precaution for Work INFOID:0000000012591751

• When removing or disassembling each component, be careful not to damage or deform it. If a componentmay be subject to interference, be sure to protect it with a shop cloth.

• When removing (disengaging) components with a screwdriver or similar tool, be sure to wrap the componentwith a shop cloth or vinyl tape to protect it.

• Protect the removed parts with a shop cloth and prevent them from being dropped.• Replace a deformed or damaged clip.• If a part is specified as a non-reusable part, always replace it with a new one.• Be sure to tighten bolts and nuts securely to the specified torque.• After installation is complete, be sure to check that each part works properly.• Follow the steps below to clean components:- Water soluble dirt:• Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water, wring the water out of the cloth and wipe the dirty area.• Then rub with a soft, dry cloth.- Oily dirt:• Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water with mild detergent (concentration: within 2 to 3%) and wipe the dirty

area.• Then dip a cloth into fresh water, wring the water out of the cloth and wipe the detergent off.• Then rub with a soft, dry cloth.- Do not use organic solvent such as thinner, benzene, alcohol or gasoline.- For genuine leather seats, use a genuine leather seat cleaner.

HEADLAMP SYSTEM : System Description INFOID:0000000012591756

LOW BEAM OPERATIONWhen the lighting switch is in 2nd position, the BCM receives input requesting the headlamps to illuminate.This input is communicated to the IPDM E/R across the CAN communication lines. The CPU of the IPDM E/Rcontrols the headlamp low relay coil which supplies power to the low beam headlamps.

HIGH BEAM OPERATION/FLASH-TO-PASS OPERATIONWith the lighting switch in the 2nd position and placed in HIGH position, the BCM receives input requesting theheadlamp high beams to illuminate. The flash to pass feature can be used any time and also sends a signal tothe BCM. This input is communicated to the IPDM E/R across the CAN communication lines. The CPU of thecombination meter controls the ON/OFF status off the HIGH BEAM indicator. The CPU of the IPDM E/R con-trols the headlamp high relay coil which supplies power to the high beam headlamps.The combination meter receives a high beam request signal (ON) through the CAN communication lines andturns the high beam indicator lamp ON.

AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM : System Description INFOID:0000000012591758

• BCM (Body Control Module) controls auto light operation according to signals from optical sensor, lightingswitch and ignition switch.

• IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engine Room) operates parking, license plate, tail, front foglamps and headlamps according to CAN communication signals from BCM.

• Optical sensor detects ambient brightness of 800 to 2,500 lux. And optical sensor converts light (lux) to volt-age, then sends the optical sensor signal to BCM.

OUTLINEThe auto light control system has an optical sensor that detects outside brightness.When the lighting switch is in AUTO position, it automatically turns ON/OFF the parking, license plate, tail,front fog lamps and headlamps in accordance with the ambient light. Sensitivity can be adjusted. For thedetails of the setting, Refer to BCS-20, "HEADLAMP : CONSULT Function (BCM - HEADLAMP)".DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEMDAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM : System Diagram INFOID:0000000012591759

the daytime running lights will turn OFF. The daytime running lights will turn ON when the parking brake isreleased.

OPERATION The BCM monitors inputs from the parking brake switch and the combination switch (lighting and turn signalswitch) to determine when to operate the daytime running light system. The BCM sends a daytime runninglight request to the IPDM E/R via the CAN communication lines. The IPDM E/R grounds the daytime runninglight relay which in turn, provides power to the daytime running lights. FRONT FOG LAMP SYSTEMFRONT FOG LAMP SYSTEM : System Diagram INFOID:0000000012591761

FRONT FOG LAMP SYSTEM : System Description INFOID:0000000012591762

The front fog lamps are activated with the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch). The lightingswitch signal to the BCM is monitored with the BCM combination switch reading function. When the fog lampsare turned ON with the lighting switch, the BCM sends a front fog lamp request signal via CAN communicationlines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM E/R grounds the front fog lamp relay coil to activate the front fog lamps.

FRONT FOG LAMP OPERATIONWhen the lighting switch is in front fog lamp ON position and also in 1st or 2nd position or AUTO position(headlamp is ON), the BCM detects FR FOG ON and the HEAD LAMP 1, 2 ON or the AUTO LIGHT ON. TheBCM sends a front fog lamp request ON signal via the CAN communication lines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDME/R then turns ON the front fog lamp relay sending power to the front fog lamps.TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD WARNING LAMPSTURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD WARNING LAMPS : System Diagram INFOID:0000000012591763

TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD WARNING LAMPS : System Description INFOID:0000000012591764

TURN SIGNAL OPERATIONWhen the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) is in LH or RH turn position with the ignitionswitch in the ON position, the BCM receives input requesting the turn RH or turn LH lamps to illuminate. TheBCM controls the turn signal power to the respective turn signal lamp. The BCM also sends a turn indicatorsignal ON request via the CAN communication lines to the combination meter. The combination meter thenactivates the appropriate turn signal indicator and audible buzzer.

HAZARD LAMP OPERATIONWhen the hazard switch is in the ON position, the BCM receives input requesting the hazard lamps illuminate.The BCM controls the turn signal power to both the LH and RH turn signal lamps. The BCM sends a hazard

PRECAUTIONPRECAUTIONSPrecaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER" INFOID:0000000012830888

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used alongwith a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certaintypes of collision. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section ofthis Service Manual.WARNING:• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in

the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, it is recommended that all mainte-nance and repair be performed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

• Improper repair, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal injurycaused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag Module,see the SR section.

• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in thisService Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-ness connectors.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERSWARNING:• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-

tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with ahammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causingserious injury.

• When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect thebattery or batteries, and wait at least three minutes before performing any service.

Precaution for Work INFOID:0000000012830889

• When removing or disassembling each component, be careful not to damage or deform it. If a componentmay be subject to interference, be sure to protect it with a shop cloth.

• When removing (disengaging) components with a screwdriver or similar tool, be sure to wrap the componentwith a shop cloth or vinyl tape to protect it.

• Protect the removed parts with a shop cloth and prevent them from being dropped.• Replace a deformed or damaged clip.• If a part is specified as a non-reusable part, always replace it with a new one.• Be sure to tighten bolts and nuts securely to the specified torque.• After installation is complete, be sure to check that each part works properly.• Follow the steps below to clean components:- Water soluble dirt:• Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water, wring the water out of the cloth and wipe the dirty area.• Then rub with a soft, dry cloth.- Oily dirt:• Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water with mild detergent (concentration: within 2 to 3%) and wipe the dirty

area.• Then dip a cloth into fresh water, wring the water out of the cloth and wipe the detergent off.• Then rub with a soft, dry cloth.- Do not use organic solvent such as thinner, benzene, alcohol or gasoline.- For genuine leather seats, use a genuine leather seat cleaner.

Concept of auto active test

• IPDM E/R starts the auto active test with the door switch signals transmitted by BCM via CAN communica-tion. Therefore, the CAN communication line between IPDM E/R and BCM is considered normal if the autoactive test starts successfully.

• The auto active test facilitates troubleshooting if any systems controlled by IPDM E/R cannot be operated.Diagnosis chart in auto active test mode
